Much like Initial D 4th Stage, Wangan Midnight will also be produced by OB Planning and have Keiichi Tsuchiya serve as an editorial supervisor. The show will begin broadcast on Animax (2007-06-08) and SKY PerfecTV! (2007-06-15) respectively, and will be Pay-Per-View. Two episodes are scheduled to air per month. It is currently confirmed that the series will span a total of 26 episodes.

Please check here first for any updates regarding releases of the anime in both RAW and fansubbed form. This first post and thread will be updated as more episodes are released along with further news and information regarding the show.

I strongly urge everybody, to please, be patient and allow a suitable amount of time for the release of the raws and/or subs before asking for their whereabouts. Raws tend to be uploaded within a few days after an episode has aired, where as the release of a subbed episode can range anywhere between a couple of days to months after the episodes initial air date. So once again, I ask of you to please be patient and refrain yourselves as much as possible while waiting for the release of the raws and/or subs. This thread and post will be updated ASAP to notify you of any episode releases.

NOTE that this is an anime only thread. Discussion of any manga events yet to be aired in the anime should be done so inside spoiler tags. Further and in-depth manga discussions should instead be posted here in the relevant Wangan Midnight Manga Thread.

I hope they have some of Yuzo's music in it, and *crosses fingers* the anime will help cause the manga's to be translated officially in the US. As long as its like the manga, I don't care if the cars are 3d, animated, etc.

I am happy that there is going to be a Wangan Midnight anime soon. I just hope they have great voice actors to go along with it.

Of course, I'll be happy seeing Akio and Reina again (except when seeing their appearances from the first few volumes of the manga. I cannot stand Akio's weird face and Reina's ugly curly hair. Luckily the later volumes did their appearances justice. For those who read the Japanese manga and/or played stages 41-50 in the WMMT2 game, you'll know what I mean.)
